Dude I have four younger sisters. Growing up I had John Mayer and Jason Mraz coming out my asshole. You assume that because I disagree with you I am uninformed. Well you are wrong, and I think you are being a turd about it to get the upper hand in an argument with me. "I thought you were an open-minded music fan." Bitch, PLEASE. Give it up, wolfy, or you are going in the bin with biff and doumak.

Josh Groban gots a set of pipes but his music is still for people who take music recommendations from Starbucks.

Sorry, I should be getting musical advice from Saturday morning cartoons.

Not to say that is a bad thing, I just use it as an example to describe my point. We all get music we enjoy from different places; it's a matter of opinion (not pity) as to whether we like it or not. You can enjoy bands that sing songs from Dr. Seuss books if you like, I do not judge.

My sisters have terrible taste in music and yes, that makes me sad for them. Schumacher made one decent film, and Michael Douglas carried it single-handedly. He is one of the worst directors in the history of cinema. Starbucks is a corporate whore that panders to the lowest common denominator. Animators are doing their jobs when they inspire young minds, make you laugh or show you something you've never seen before, and Starbucks is doing their job if they don't fuck up your latte. Let's don't compare them. As ever, I stand by everything I said. Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuugs!!

Yeah, the "open minded music fan" thing was a cheap shot, but dude, lighten up. It is too easy to push your buttons. Especially for someone who finds it so easy to give others shit. I imagine this is another hazard of having four younger sisters.

Yeah, I've mentioned before that I have mild Asperger's. You may have noticed that sometimes it is hard for me to locate the brake pedal. It really isn't about posturing or intellectual defense; to me, this is basically a video game in which the point is to have the last word.

Of that list I've seen Marilyn Manson (Calgary), Snow (Muchmusic Snow Job) and The Beach Boys (Calgary) circa 1987 (so I believe Brian Wilson was present). Forgive me if I'm wrong on that but I was 10 years old. Seeing The Jacksons is a feat though!

Yup...Division Bell Tour, Edmonton Alberta. Craziest thing about the show, light show aside, was that people were taking their seats, milling about, smoking, drinking...and then suddenly the band is on stage playing "Astronomy Domine"! No dimming of the lights, no announcement, just fucking Pink Floyd playing on stage. Sureal as all hell.

I wouldn't be surprised if you are picturing me peeling a carrot with a staple gun.
